Chad Coleman was fantastic as Cutty Wise on The Wire, so I've got really high hopes for him to deliver as Tyrese. I'll probably never stop being amused by the somewhat offensive tokenism of black guys on the show, though, because they seem to have to kill one black guy on the show off whenever another one shows up. It's almost like a running joke.

Yeah, really good to see Cutty back on my screen. Was such a pleasant surprise. He was one of my fave. characters from The Wire.

One episode in, and I think I already like it more than the singular Karl offerings, not that I didn't like them, I think it's just that the two play off each other well, with Warwick being the straight man whilst also offering some individual foreign interactions of funny.

His last project was this aggressively unfunny Jaime Pressly sitcom that was so bad and such a complete failure that I legit feared his career would never recover. I'm pretty thrilled that's turned out not to be the case.

But, yeah. Cutty Wise, son. Cutty Wise.

Awesome. I'm definitely going to try to get to this sometime this week.

Just watched the new episode of how I met your mother... to be honest it was kind of a breath of fresh air. Robin is still robin.. but barney is maturing and they are almost switching roles... I'm not saying I'm a total fan of this scenario but it is new, and will lead to new funny story lines.

I've been re-watching Drawn Together on Netflix. That show is so offensive! Racist, sexist, homophobic, sacrilegious, antisemitic, you name it, no group of people are safe. It's an equal oppertunity offender! No wonder it only ran for 3 short seasons

My issue with Drawn Together was simply that it was offensive for the sake of being offensive. Like, it had no other aspirations. A show such as South Park at least uses its offensiveness for satirical purposes and goes about things in deceptively smart ways. But Drawn Together's entire mission statement was just being as crude and obnoxious as humanly possible. That can be amusing in small doses, but the show's one-dimensionality lends itself to wearing out its welcome pretty quick.

I'm sort of shocked it lasted as long as it did, though. Almost all of my friends are into animation and comedy, but I don't know a single person who ever watched the show. They're not all elitists, either. Like, they'll watch just about anything that Comedy Central and Adult Swim throw their way.
